… beginning another week of fun for everyone …
[Description by Douglas Pierce ]
I recorded this way back in August of 1967. Radio stations usually used the Sunday
midnight through early Monday morning hours for maintenance of equipment. Early one
Monday morning I was able to hear and catch “The Radio Station WLS Sign On”.
It was recorded 145 miles from Chicago, 12 miles east of Kalamazoo. Augusta, Michigan was my childhood residence. I would DX many of the big stations. There was some signal
fading and static in the air that morning, but to this day, I am very proud of this
segment. WLS, as well as WCFL, were powerhouses during this period of time.
